They ran.
Every muscle in their bodies pushed them down the mountain.
They had no time.
He had no time.
If he was alive.
Daniel stumbled, but didn’t even pause, up on his feet running again within moments.
When they reached where he fell, they were confronted by a vast sea of ice.
And somewhere beneath its surface was their commanding officer.
An impossible task.
But they attempted it anyway.
It took a long time, and they almost missed it.
Blue with the cold of death, a single motionless hand reached out to them, a silent plea from the ice.
They had found him.
